In this week’s episode I sat down with Meredith Lynch. Meredith is an LA-based writer, comedian, and TikTok sensation. In just under four years, she has captivated a dedicated audience with her bold take on pop culture, fearlessly dissecting everything from the Kardashians to the climate crisis. She is the co-creator and cohost of The Moment LIVE a female-led news show that streams wherever you scroll.

We discuss the feeling and healing of being heard, intent versus impact, the importance of understanding the intersection between pop culture and politics and so much more.
